CME Scoreboard: Prediction Detail

Prediction for CME (2018-03-05T23:39:00-CME-001)

CME Observed Time: 2018-03-05T23:39Z
iSWAS Layout URL: https://kauai.ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov/DONKI/view/CME/13716/-1
CME Note: First seen in STA Cor2 at 2018-03-05T23:39Z, but this is after a data gap from 19:30Z to 23:30Z so the true start time is uncertain. The source is likely the long-duration filling in of the dim CH region visible in the South of AIA 193, centered around longitude -10, beginning around 18:00 on 2018-03-05. The CME is also visible as a faint partial halo to the SW in C2/C3, but not visible in the difference imaging.
CME Shock Arrival Time: 2018-03-09T23:30Z

INFO FROM SIDC - RWC BELGIUM 2018 Mar 06 12:39UTC

Solar X ray flux remained below B level and with no spotted regions on the
visible disk chances for any flare occurrences remain very low.
SoHO/LASCO C2 images show a very faint and slow CME first visible around
1:25 UT. It is primarily directed towards the south west and given its
faint character its angular extent can not clearly be determined. Stereo A
COR2 images however suggest that it can not be excluded that Earth is on
its propagation path. Further analysis is ongoing but given its faint
nature and slow speed any possible impacts should be fairly insignificant.
Proton flux levels were at background values and are expected to remain
so.

Lead Time: 79.98 hour(s)
Difference: 9.00 hour(s)

CCMC Rules of the Road: CCMC requests that users notify the CCMC, CME model/technique developers and submitting forecasters/researchers before performing event and validation studies with data from the CME Arrival Time Scoreboard. It is recommended that such studies be performed with the knowledge and collaboration of developers and submitting forecasters/researchers.
